In the past years, we have conducted 3 stages of public consultation for the study of further development of Tseung Kwan O. In the Stage 3 public consultation conducted in early 2004, we presented the Concept Plan for further development of Tseung Kwan O, which defined the land use framework for the further development areas of TKO, particularly Town Centre South, Tiu Keng Leng and Pak Shing Kok. During the consultation, we were pleased to receive general public support for the Concept Plan.

Since then, we have formulated detailed land use proposals for the further development areas of TKO on the basis of the Concept Plan and taking account of the public views collected in the Stage 3 public consultation. We have also carried out engineering and environmental impact assessments which demonstrated that the recommended land use proposals are feasible and acceptable in terms of planning, engineering, traffic, marine and environmental aspects.

A development plan for further development of Tseung Kwan O is now formulated according to the recommended detailed land use proposals of Tseung Kwan O. It will improve the overall design of the New Town and help us to achieve our vision of building Tseung Kwan O into a new town that can boast of its convenience, vibrancy, distinctive urban design and quality living environment.

Study Findings

The study findings are now presented in the Executive Summary of the Study. We have also produced a short video of the new development proposals for viewing.

Way Forward

The Environmental Impact Assessment Report has been approved by EPD under the EIA Ordinance. Planning Department will make necessary amendments to the TKO Outline Zoning Plan and public views will also be sought during that statutory process.

At last, we would like to thank you for your active participation in the consultation process, which enabled the study to be satisfactorily concluded with a plan that meets the needs of the local community.
